Razorock Hawk / Feather Pro

Another great shave with the Feather blade. IMO these inexpensive razors (Hawk and General as examples) are simply vehicles for the AC blades. Its all about these blades.

Yesterday I replaced the Feather Pro in the General with a fresh Kai Captain blade.

Do you note any difference in the shave between the bronze and aluminum Generals, Gary?

That was my concern before I used it the first time. Now I can say they're equally perfect! :D

EDIT: I have discovered this razor is brass, not bronze. I was confused. Sorry.
